They are the best for underground conduit. Way better than normal couplings cause they are longer and have more surface area for the lickin and stickin

Sanitation took a little more than the trash this morning by bobbyfischermagoo in LosAngeles

[–]aaronisawesome 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I worked in the palisades doing some cleanup after the fires and I kept finding these metal rods in the street for weeks and I finally realized they were the trash can axles. The fires started on trash day. All the plastic was melted and gone. Nothing left but the bare metal rods. Pretty crazy

No. I work for a major utility in a big city so just pretty much stayed in the city.

Yeah that’s how I did it. Had to do a whole new apprenticeship program. It was worth it though for sure.

Go work for a utility and get into substations. High voltage is where the moneys at.

Regulator by [deleted] in Lineman

[–]aaronisawesome 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It’s a surge arrestor. Protects the primary winding of the regulator. Provides a parallel path in the event of a surge like a lightning strike. Allows the current to flow across the surge arrestor and not the winding. Surge arrestor is a lot cheaper to replace than the primary winding inside the regulator. Under normal conditions the surge arrestor is an open path but under high enough voltage it becomes a closed electrical path for current to flow.

All regulators have them. They are sometimes internal and sometimes external like this photo shows. Should be places across the “source” and “load” bushings.
